Henry rifles running add on Newsmax channel

Henry rifles running add on Newsmax channel. Very cool ad and I’m sure they’re going to gain lots of attention. What’s interesting to me is… I haven’t seen any ads for guns on any channels.

Purchased my first Henry this week, an X in 45 Colt. Fit, finish, and operation were extremely smooth. Very impressive.

They can advertise, but I can't find Henry single shot rifles in stock anyway. I'm looking for one in .357 magnum.

Henry has been advertising for years; going back to when they were made in Brooklyn.

@Andy 1: I have also been looking for a henry single shot, but chambered for .44 magnum. It seems there are none to be found.

I'm guessing the problem is that henry has recalled ALL single shot rifles manufactured before July 1, 2020. Due to COVID restrictions in new york state, there likely has been little production of the single shots since July. Henry's website is not very clear to me, but it seems like the recall may be about the transfer bar hanging up.

Henry single shots are being discontinued. If you want one, better find it pretty soon.

The Henry single shot rifles and shotguns are made in Rice Lake, Wisconsin. Henry no longer has production facilities in New York, they are headquartered in Bayonne NJ and also have the Rice Lake plant.

Henry's centerfire rifles are also made in Rice Lake. My H009CCH rifle (30-30 with color case hardened receiver) was made in Rice Lake, WI (or as we like to say, "up north").

I haven't read anything that indicates that the Henry single shots are being discontinued, do you have a link?

I have two Henry Single-Shots: .223 and a .308. Both were recalled and Henry's recall service was extraordinary! Got the initial emails & I replied. They put in the their que and sent me boxes for each. I returned both and within two weeks, had both back at home!

They're a really nice rifle, with the .308 particularly! Fits me very well and really is comfortable to fire. It has a Skinner sight.

My experience with the recall mirrors yours. Henry handled it perfectly. From the time I sent mine out until it was returned was 10 days... and 8 of those were shipping travel!

Being discontinued?

Then it's odd that they started offering them in 350 Legend and 450 Bushmaster. They're not even listed on the Henry website yet, but if you search product codes H015-350 & H015-450, you'll find them online.
